If we can play with consistent on ball pressure and not give up too much with the bench players in the game, assuming Love can play "his game" I don't see us falling to this team again. But, that might be asking too much so, hopefully we can put up a similar effort as Wed. and be there at the end continuing to improve as the series goes on and get out of this one.

Defense defense defense **** yeah
Even Hood looks good on defense which is an anomaly he's buying in I guess & the sweet thing is he has it in him which means a lot going forward

Best half of ball I've seen out of this team since the deadline trade. Love it

Fully expect a couple ejections at some point in this series wouldn't be surprised if it's today.
Maybe it's time for Perk to put Lance on the deck.

So happy for the Pacers - energy is infectious. Small ball lineup is trash. Stop playing Love at center.

GTFO
The refs let them back in this game big-time.
We can't do anything without getting called for it and they can't do anything wrong.
**** disgrace

Pacers in 7; they deserve it.

I feel bad for our players, being put in a position to fail. A wasted year of LBJ.

You really can't tell how bad the small lineup is? Do you see how hard it is for us to get a defensive rebound? Nance/Love looked pretty good.

IT'S OVER!

If Swish made that shot, someone would've been wheeling me to the hospital.

I'm telling you, it's the same bull as the pre-deadline team; the players are just younger. They should've traded Ty Lue for a 2nd round draft pick.

Anyway...
Have to make bognannybitch a passer like I said before this series started.
This was difficult to understand given the all out effort defense end in the 1st half and they definitely benefited from biased officiating until the game was tired so as much as I'd like to believe this wasn't about money it was.
Of course you'll never get a clueless fan to buy it,since they are the ones being sold that Indy is a legit match up against us.
Regardless 3 things I hate here...no Osman,no hard flagrant screens and too many jumpers.
If we lose this series I'd be shocked,but it went less than 7 and went 6 we would have to get the same officiating in game 6 that we didn't get tonight and we won anyway.
Pacers are a solid team with a hungry fanbase and now that they've won 2 that should be enough for the league to let the teams play without officials altering outcomes

Why so personal?

Dude's a straight baller. Never complains, humble, keeps his head down, a true sportsman in all senses.

p.s about the refs. It's not the case here they're deliberately screwing the Cavs, it's just that you don't get superstar calls like you are used to. Get real. Cavs suck big time and you'll suck even more when LeBron goes.

p.p.s Magic sucks even more :lol:

That Clarkson-Hood-Green-Love-Nance lineup was lit; if only Lue ran a big, conventional lineup, this would be a whole different series - Bron back at the 3, Love to 4, and I don't care if your center is Nance, Zizic (not big minutes obviously) or even TT.
